Curd and Whey - Aqua

Life has been busy!!! That busy that hobbies have to wait and so was updating the blog... However, it is always refreshing to visit my tatting friends and catching up, sharing, exchanging, etc.,etc...

I was thinking for a while what to share with you all. Than I came across this piece that I tatted during my son's school fundraiser. I named it "Curd and Whey-Aqua." Actually, it was given this unusual yet very 'yummy' already. It is an origin from Mary Knoir's edging that I came across from one of my favorite blogs and my favorite tatting person for her awesome videos Karen Cabrera. You can reach her blog here.

I used Lizbeth size 10 ocean turquoise lt-658 thread from HHtatting website. It is a very fresh and lively aqua color. I paired the thread with copper findings and matching beads. Focal beads are handmade polymer clay beads.

I think it is very inspiring piece and I had lot of fun tatting it. I can say I was very happy after it was done. I did matching earrings in very simple yet sophisticated design. They can be worn together or without a necklace and they will tell there own story.

Let me know how you find my work. You are always an inspiration so keep visiting and lot of comments!!! This will keep me motivated to share my work and tat more...
